Appendicitis Symptoms
Appendicitis typically begins with a vague pain in the middle of the abdomen. The pain slowly moves to the right lower abdomen over 24 hours. In the classic description, abdominal pain is accompanied with nausea, vomiting, lack of appetite, and fever. These symptoms, however, occur in fewer than half of people who develop appendicitis. Any combination of these symptoms may or may not occur. More commonly, people with appendicitis do not have typical symptoms.

The symptoms of appendicitis may take 4-48 hours to develop. During this time, someone developing this condition may have varying degrees of loss of appetite, vomiting, and abdominal pain. Some with developing appendicitis may have constipation, diarrhea, or no change in bowel habits.
Early symptoms are often hard to separate from other conditions including gastroenteritis (an inflammation of the stomach and intestines). Many people admitted to the hospital for suspected appendicitis leave the hospital with a diagnosis of gastroenteritis. On the other hand, true appendicitis is often diagnosed as gastroenteritis at first.
Children and the elderly often have fewer symptoms, which makes their diagnosis less obvious.

When i had appendictis i wasnt actually sick just had terrible nausea, i had pain in the middle of my stonach that went to the lower right side and it was awful!!
If you think it is appendictis go to the hosp/docs asap the longer you leave it the worse it can get it can rupture and casue septicimia - not nice !!
